We love Bangladesh the way we love our mothers, unconditionally, and without needing a reason. And with the July revolution, it could be argued that we have taken a bold step towards understanding the true meaning of patriotism.
In commemoration of the July Uprising, on 29 July, 2025, The Daily Star hosted an art camp titled “The Rebel Within You,” inviting 11 young artists who lived through the chaos, fear, and fire of 2024’s student-led mass movement.
In those charged days, artistes from across the country stood with the people. Musicians, too, found their voice in the revolution. They came together under a single banner, "Get Up, Stand Up"—a name borrowed from Bob Marley’s timeless anthem. And with that spirit—“Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights”—they raised their voices not just for rights, but against brutality, mass killings, and fear that soaked the monsoon nights.
How a July warrior was denied immediate medical care.
